    Leeds Match *No trains to Newhaven/Seaford*

    As long as you let the football buses through.

    Italian Constitutional Election - Dec 4th. Potentially another BREXIT/Trump moment?

    The interesting thing about the Italian referendum result was that supporters of the NO vote (the anti-establishment winners) were out on the streets singing "La bella ciao" - the well-known communist anthem of the 1940s. I doubt they have that much in common with Trump or Farage.

    FA Cup Sunday

    It's a cinema in Ashton-under-Lyne. They pick their players from kids who go to the Saturday morning film club.

    Cardiff City vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    The tactic is obvious. Don't concede and then take the opposition by surprise with a late goal and no time to recover. There's a reason we're in the top two.

    Helen Mirren anti-drink driving advert

    There's something about Helen Mirren talking dirty that makes men pay attention.

    Yorkshire Puddings on Xmas Dinner

    My grandmother, who made thick heavy Yorkshire puds that would absorb gravy like they were made out of blotting paper, insisted on a Christmas dinner that included Yorkshire pudding and swedes. In memory of her, I have voted YES.

    Thoughts on temporary travel arrangements

    Is there any suggestion that the Lewes - Falmer shuttle bus service will happen?

    People who ruined their careers from saying / doing something considered morally wrong

    I know someone who took advantage of the advances in photocopying technology to doctor a local council consultation leaflet to make it read HASTINGS BOROUGH COUNCIL HAVE PRODUCED A DAFT LOCAL PLAN. He didn't get sacked. In fact, he went on to become the Chief Executive of another nearby...

    Genealogy sites

    The sheer quantity and variety of records that Ancestry offers make it superior to all of the other sites. And they keep adding new searchable databases ... most recently the records of qualified nurses in the UK, which acts as a useful check of addresses and marital status, that we once could...

    Switching current accounts

    I used to have two current accounts, each with different banks. Is that not possible any more?

    Uber Brighton

    What legal powers does Leeds City Council have to prevent out of city private hire vehicles coming into the city to provide services? Exactly the same as in Brighton, I guess - ie none.

    Should we need to pay charity?

    Indeed. As someone who has been living with cancer for a few years, all I would say is that the NHS has funded a massive amount of my treatment. I'm grateful, of course, but mainly to the people of earlier generations who campaigned for free medical treatment to be a right that everyone in...

    Who do you consider Brighton's biggest rival for second spot?

    Best we overtake Newcastle then.

    Homophobic abuse by Fulham fans yesterday

    The odd thing is that there's a post on the Fulham board by someone called Lighthouse that has the signature "The above is NOT A LEGAL DOCUMENT", which is exactly the same signature that is used by c0lz, who started this NSC thread. Coincidence?

    Another travel thread - this time about buses!

    No they don't. They turn off the main road and go via the bus stops at the entrance to Stanmer Park and on the Sussex University campus. The best advice to a newcomer to the 23 or 25 is to get off at the stop where the main group of Albion supporters get off. Ignore the students, because...

    Another travel thread - this time about buses!

    The 28s and 29s that go to Lewes are limited stop buses and don't actually stop at Mithras House. You need the 23 or 25, which will drop you at the Sussex University Sports Centre stop, where you walk through the subway and over the railway footbridge to get to the stadium. When I travel from...

    Danny dyer

    The chances are that anyone who can trace their family back to a member of the aristocracy, especially a "senior" branch of one of the great families of England, will be able to zoom back through many generations, just like Danny Dyer did. He was able to use well known routes back to show that...
